Board recognizes student champions, student representatives and staff awards
Summary
The board recognized two student board members and a string of music and academic achievements, including second‑grade state champions and student Ryan Martino's $125,000 Charles Chick Evans Scholarship and enrollment at the University of Delaware; staff recognitions included Lisa Viskovich and Apple Distinguished Educator Lauren Lavelle.
The board paused regular business to recognize student and staff achievements. The superintendent called forward Daisy School second graders Isaac Abraham, Dylan Gonzales and Malik Mesbah as first‑place state winners in their grade and noted elected officials had acknowledged the students; they were invited to City Hall on June 23 for additional recognition.
The board also recognized student ex officio Ryan Martino, announcing he received the Charles Chick Evans Scholarship valued at $125,000, which the superintendent said provides full tuition and housing for four years; the superintendent said Martino will attend the University of Delaware. Staff recognitions included Lisa Viskovich for district photography and communications and Lauren Lavelle for being named an Apple Distinguished Educator in New York State.
